The toolbox offers advanced analysis methods of MEG, EEG, and invasive electrophysiological data, such as time-frequency analysis, source reconstruction using dipoles, distributed sources and beamformers and non-parametric statistical testing. It supports the data formats of all major MEG systems (CTF, Neuromag/Elekta/Megis, BTi/4D, Yokogawa/Ricoh) and of most popular EEG systems, and new formats can be added easily. FieldTrip contains high-level functions that you can use to construct your own analysis protocols in MATLAB. Furthermore, it easily allows methods researchers to incorporate new methods for EEG/MEG analysis.

To get started with FieldTrip, please continue reading the getting started documentation.

Today we had our end-of-year poster session at the Donders Institute, during which also the Donders Cube has been awarded. This is an institutional award that acknowledges ‘beyond-call-of-duty’ contributions to the scientific and social life of the Donders Institute, and beyond. We are pleased that this year’s award has been awarded to the FieldTrip team! We are proud to be able to work on such a nice project, which wouldn’t be in its present shape if it weren’t from the interactions with and contributions from the whole FieldTrip community! So, let’s keep up the good work for the new year to come, and for now all the best for the holiday season.
